How are the power dental scalers classified? - ✔✔ correct answer Classified by type of frequency,
transducer, stroke pattern and power dispersion to tip
What are the Most frequent types of power dental scaler? - ✔✔ correct answer 1. Ultrasonic
magnetostrictive
Cavitron (Dentsply)
2. Ultrasonic piezoelectric
Pet Piezo Plus (Inovadent)
High speed vet dental cart (Inovadent)
Highdent Trio compressor dental unit (Dispomed)
3. Sonic
What is Ultrasonic? - ✔✔ correct answer - Sound is a form of energy produced by vibrations.
- Humans can hear sound at frequencies up to 20,000 Hz or 20 kHz
- Term ultrasonic: Applies to sound energy having frequency > than 20 kHz
- Ultrasonic dental instruments convert electrical current into high-frequency (25-30 kHz) mechanical
vibrations
- The conversion is attained by either a magnetostrictive or piezoelectric transducer
What is the stroke pattern for magnetostrictive? What is it for piezoelectric? - ✔✔ correct answer -
elliptical
- Linear
What part of the power dispersion to tip for magnetostrictive? piezoelectric? - ✔✔ correct answer -
All surfaces active
- Lateral surfaces active
What is magnetostriction? - ✔✔ correct answer - Changing of a material's physical dimension in
response to changing its magnetization.
- In other words, a magnetostrictive material (eg. nickel) will change shape when it is subjected to a
magnetic field.
